Excerpt from The Galilean: The Permanent Element in Religion
Not very many strangers, it may be, and no sight seers would come through Nazareth for the children to gaze at, but the main roads were not far away, and many children, as they grew up, would be taken in the party up to Jerusalem for one of the great feasts. On the high roads they would meet with the caravans of traders and of pilgrims, foreigners from all the East, Roman legionaries, a party of Herod's tr00ps, the Imperial post, a deputation going to Rome to put their case before Caesar, perhaps a party of criminals on their way to trial and crucifixion there would be priests and Levites and publicans and strolling theatrical companies. And all these things Jesus would see when he was a boy, and Mary would tell him of the Roman Oppression and of what the prophets had predicted when King Messiah should come and as they passed some traveller withalean and hungry look people would whisper, There goes a Zealot there goes a real patriot surely the trumpet will sound soon in Israel, and the arm of the Lord be re vealed the Romans will be driven out of Jerusalem, and the dogs shall lick their blood as they licked the blood of Jezebel. For it was on everybody's lips that the kingdom or rule of God must come.
